The coded bits from each data stream will be directly mapped as multi-dimensional SCMA codeword in complex domain and then spread onto the physical resource elements in a sparse manner. The number of codewords that can be nonorthogonally multiplexed in one SCMA block can be made much larger than the number of orthogonal resource elements therein, resulting in an overloaded system. The sparsity in the spreading pattern and the design in the multidimensional modulator jointly ensure the SCMA codewords can be robustly decoded with low complexity. In this paper, we focus on the low complexity receiver design and verified the superior of an SCMA system via simulations and real-time prototyping. Lab tests and field tests all show that SCMA is a promising candidate for 5G non-orthogonal multiple access which can provide up to 300% overloading that triples the whole system throughput while still enjoying the link performance close to orthogonal transmissions.展开更多

Traditional single-UAV mission reliability modeling methods have been unable to meet the requirements of UAV swarm mission reliability modeling. Therefore, the UAV swarm mission reliability modeling and evaluation method is proposed. First, aimed at the interdependence among the multiple layers, a multi-layer network model of a UAV swarm is established. At the same time, based on the system having the following characteristics—using a mission chain to complete the mission and applying the connectivity of the mission network—the mission network model of a UAV swarm is established. Second, vulnerability and connectivity are selected as two indicators to reflect the reliability of the mission, and aimed at random attack and deliberate attack, vulnerability and connectivity evaluation methods are proposed. Finally, the validity and accuracy of the constructed model are verified through simulations,and the model and selected indicators can meet the reliability requirements of the UAV swarm mission. In this way, this study provides quantitative reference for UAV-swarm-related decisionmaking work and supports the development of UAV-swarm-related work.展开更多

文摘诸如交通网络、供水网络、电信网络、燃气网络等在人们的生活中极其重要,但是这些网络容易受到自然和人为等因素的影响导致失效,进而降低其连通性。为研究其连通性问题,改进SCM（sequential compounding method）实现了考虑点和线可靠性的有向无环网络连通性的计算方法。该算法是一种快速可靠性评价算法,其结果是近似的,适用于分析可分解为点—线—点结构的网络,特别适用于有一定统计规律的网络。算法主要由两种运算组成,即＂与＂合并和＂或＂合并,通过这两种运算将网络化简直到合并为一个点为止。计算八种典型的网络,并将结果与文献和MCS（Monte Carlo simulations）比较,结果表明,提出的算法与MCS相比计算得到的连通性略有不同,误差在-6.2%~4.6%;但是计算时间差别很大,大约是MCS的1.2%~9.2%。
